Subject to Section 6.4, the Company Board shall recommend that the holders of Company Stock approve and adopt this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger (the “Company Board Recommendation”).

The only matters to be voted upon at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting are the matters required pursuant to the Company Stockholder Approval and routine proposals required in connection with such vote.

The Company shall comply with all Applicable Laws that are applicable to the Company Stockholder Meeting and, unless the Board of Directors shall have effected an Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, Section 6.03, the Board of Directors (acting on the recommendation of the Special Committee) shall (A) include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 and (B) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval.

Parent Stockholders’ Meeting (i) Parent will, in accordance with applicable Law and its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, establish a record date for, duly call and give notice of, and use its reasonable best efforts to convene and hold a meeting of holders of capital stock of Parent to consider and vote upon the issuance of Series C Common Stock in connection with the Merger (the “Parent Stockholders Meeting”) as promptly as practicable.

In addition, notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 6.5(c), Parent may postpone or adjourn the Parent Stockholders Meeting to allow reasonable additional time for the filing or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that Parent has determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to be required under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by stockholders of Parent prior to the Parent Stockholders Meeting.
